Bhutan
A country where no colonial flags fluttered, Bhutan is a nation, which has retained all the charisma of the old world, embodied in the monastic fortresses, ancient temples, monasteries and chortens (stupas), which dot the countryside and prayer flags fluttering above farmhouses, on hillsides, lush forests and rushing glacial rivers. Every moment in Bhutan is special. It is more than a journey. It is an expedition, where one discovers a country that has been preserved in the most sublime form, with all its magical purity.
Bhutan has caught the attention of the world by its development philosophy called Gross National Happiness (GNH). It is a champion of cultural and environmental preservation, which rose above the fallacies of development with the adoption of preservation and sustainable development principles.
